Also, today is my 36th birthday. I am the most jacked & strongest I’ve ever been at this bodyweight, and I feel like I’m on the precipice of becoming the best powerlifter I’ve ever been. I have...

3 spare ribs w/ sugar-free dry rub , 1.9lbs wings tossed in Sazon spice, and a nice Caesar salad to prepare for bench in the morning 😌

You sonofabitch! You actually had an orange 6-speed lol. Sucks that it got taken out that way, the injustice of it really. Still, better to have loved and lost I suppose.
-
Mine were both 6-speed manuals. One '05 in Midnight Blue (an '05 only color way) and then an '06 in the Sunrise Orange (one of the '06 only color ways). Both sick cars. The '05 was my DD for a...

My first car was a 66 Impala SS, and I had a 62 Chevy 2, a 67 Firebird, and a 76 Cutlass. I had a 55 Chevy Pickup body that I bought and flipped and sold one week later. All those were in the 80s...

Always wanted a 6-speed LS2 GTO in the sunrise orange or Bermuda blue paint…which were basically rare as frog hair back then just by paint & transmission combo, and now squarely in “not worth it...
-
I had a couple of late model GTOs (and the Grand National) that were my "nice" cars. Trucks were for driving around on the regular; though the C10 was a bit of a beast with the built and cammed...
-
My "nice" cars have been my cadillacs, my 2005 CTSV with the 400/400 Tremec / LS was insane. I could break rubber at 90mph, no problem. But my trucks were always my for fun rat rods. I hated the...

I had a '62 C10 back in the day. Cool truck. I'm leaning towards one of the Skylark GS' with the 455 lol.
-
My vote is for the LS Chevelle lol. when the day comes, I'll go back and get another C10. I've had 4 in the 60-66 bodystyle, but all of them ratrods for fun that we built. No fancy restomods...
-
Lot of GN guys eventually end up with turbo’d LS swaps anyway! At least once they pop the original motor. You’re just cutting to the chase this way lol
-
Had to sell my Grand National when I moved up to NYC. Considered another, but think I'd rather go with something a little older and with a V8 this go around. Push from this AM: Prime Pec Deck...

“All I ever wanted was a black Grand National - f*ck being rational, give ‘em what they asking for!” - Kendrick Lamar Those lyrics probably hit closer to home than for most, Jim Buick.

Looking at buying a muscle car this month lol. Probably a Skylark. A couple cool ones for sale right now. Also considering a Chevelle, but TBD lol.

Oops, sorry Smont I meant to post that in the memes thread. I got myself lost and accidentally posted in yours.😵💫 -

those are really good points. I actually found holding a 35lb kb was easier for pistols because even though it added substantial weight, it helped counter balance. it was pistol squats back in the...

Haha.
I don’t drink anymore, but thought this was funny.😂 Edit: oops, wrong thread -
Might just be what you needed, in some sense. Also, I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with doing a pistol squat, but I don’t know a single serious bodybuilder, powerlifter or strongman who...

I'm steadily gaining weight the past 2 weeks, I don't think I've eaten any more than I normally do and I've actually been having days where I really focus on keeping my fat low and my protein high...
-
I don't know many people who can do unassisted pistol squats even at body weight. When I'm not hurt I can do them because I have a really good balance in ankle mobility but when I try to get other...

can you do pistols assisted, like holding on to a power rack through the rom? I know that even though I used to be able to hammer out pistols (haven't tried in ages) I always thought they were...

Im old and weak... but this above has really been helping since I upped volume a bit and started with the nagging tendonitis.

Yeah they do! But they do work. I’m the same way. I’ve been to PT a lot and still have my exercise handouts the give you. Plus there’s so many physical therapists on YouTube you can basically...

I will just chime in and say that I also developed a case of patellar tendonitis. Its funny, its alwaya in my left knee and I seem to develop a case of it pretty much every cycle. Pistol squats...

plus they suck so they must be good. I've been to PT so many times I finally realized that all they're gonna make me do is shorter rom versions of what hurts and gradually extend the ROM until...

Try wall sits also. You can start above parallel and then slowly work your way down to where you’re at parallel.

I think the only solution is to stay active, retain as much mass as possible for as long as possible, and do the rehab work whenever needed. the worst solution for all my injuries would be to...
